Thinking of the past, she unconsciously pushed Josiah's arm off her shoulder. The laughter from the second floor quickly warmed up the mood that had just dimmed. Nia stood on the stairs on the second floor and called to her. "Mommy, Nia's room is so beautiful. Do you want to come up and visit me?" Meredith was infected by her laughter and said with a smile, "Okay, Mommy will come and visit too." She and Josiah had arranged her room together. She had seen it before, but to avoid offending Nia, she still walked to the second floor. "Daddy, come here too." Nia waved to Josiah again. "Of course." Josiah also went upstairs. Her room was huge, and the layout was carefully designed. The room was designed to look like a castle fit for a princess. It was painted in bright pink. Nia had never seen such a beautiful bedroom before. Nia was so happy that she bounced around in it, running to and fro. "Look, Mommy, that is my favorite Herro Kitty!" Nia jumped onto the bed and hug
In the evening, Meredith personally cooked a table of dishes to celebrate Nia's discharge from the hospital. Josiah poured two glasses of red wine, one of them in front of Meredith, poured another juice for Nia, and then raised his glass. "Daddy and Mommy congratulate Nia on her recovery and discharge and hope Nia can be healthy in the future." "Congratulations, Nia." Meredith also held out her cup. Nia was thrilled and said, "Thank you, Daddy and Mommy!" "Come on, Nia, eat a piece of a chicken wing." Meredith put a piece of the chicken wing in Nia's bowl. "In the future, Nia can eat whatever she wants." Nia had tasted a lot of delicious food these few days. She liked everything so much. It was as if she wanted to make up for all the delicious food she hadn't eaten in all these years. After she finished eating, she rubbed her stomach with satisfaction. "Mommy, will Nia become fat? Will I become like Clarence?" Clarence was a patient whose bed was beside Nia and was some
"Why?" "Because Nia likes to sleep alone." "But Nia used to sleep with Mommy." "Nia used to be young, but Nia has grown up now," Nia said seriously. She also wanted to sleep with Daddy and Mommy. Still, Daddy told her that Daddy and Mommy needed to develop feelings for each other. Otherwise, Daddy would find someone else to marry and have another baby. To prevent Daddy and Mommy from separating, she could only sleep by herself. Meredith was speechless. "Nia, you are only four years old now. You're not exactly grown up!" Nia was puzzled and said, "Mommy, why do you want to sleep with Nia so much? Hasn't Mommy ever slept in the princess room?" "Well...it's been a long time since I slept here." Before Meredith got married, she had always been the little princess of the Leighton family. If anything, the princess room back there was not inferior to Nia's. That was now far away from her. Now that Nia had her princess room, she was delighted. She needed to protect Nia an
Josiah looked at her angry face and said humorously, "You're not angry at your precious daughter, are you?" Meredith glared at him angrily. "I gave birth to Nia with so much hard work and brought her up for such a long time, but what about you? You obtained her affection in just a few days. Have you considered my feelings?" "It turns out that you are angry with your daughter." "I'm mad at you." Meredith corrected him. She was annoyed he had obtained her daughter's affection. Josiah stretched out his hand and put her in his arms to comfort her. "don't be angry. Nia is just afraid that we will get separated. She doesn't want to lose us, so she works hard to get us together." Of course, Meredith knew this, but she was still angry. The most important thing was... "I don't want to get back together with you." She said calmly, "Josiah, I have said this many times. I hope you can respect me. "Also, we're not husband and wife anymore, and we shouldn't be sleeping in the same
"No, I was just analyzing everything for you. What you want to do is up to you." "Okay, then I will order you to sleep in the next room." Meredith pushed him toward the door. As soon as the door was opened, Nia was standing at the door holding her big soft toy. There was a hint of confusion and sadness on the pretty little face. Meredith was stunned for a moment, then squatted in front of her and said, "What's the matter, Nia? Are you afraid to sleep alone? Do you want Mommy to sleep with you?" Nia shook her head and said solemnly, "Nia was a little scared when she heard that Daddy and Mommy were arguing." Meredith hurriedly shook her head and explained, "Nia, you misunderstood. Daddy and Mommy are not arguing." "Then what were you doing just now? Mommy was driving Daddy away." Josiah coughed dryly, stood up straight as if it was none of his business, and asked her to explain to her daughter. Meredith glared at him secretly. Playing dumb now, was he? Was he not even g
Josiah stroked her little head. "So Daddy needs Nia's help so that Mommy can forgive Daddy quickly." "Oh." Nia patted her little chest. "Don't worry, Daddy, you can trust me." "Nia is the best!" The father and daughter smiled at each other. After laughing, Josiah urged her again. "Okay, it's time for Nia to go to bed, so close your eyes quickly." Nia obediently closed her eyes and said, "Nia will fall asleep obediently. Daddy, hurry up and go comfort Mommy." "Right." "Go on, Daddy." "Okay, okay." Josiah said in a happy mood. Alfred and Lily also noticed that he was in a better mood. He saw that himself as well. Nia was cute and lively and brought happiness to his heart. As soon as he stepped into the bedroom, Meredith saw the smiles on his brows and could not help but complain, "What? Happy that your trick was successful?" Josiah put away his smile and coughed dryly, "Tricks? What are you talking about? Nia ran over here when she heard the quarrel, and I don't k
The moment Meredith was hugged by him, her body froze instantly, and she said coldly, "Josiah, did you forget everything you promised me?" "I didn't forget." A mellow voice sounded from the back of her neck. He said, "Edith, I just wanted to sleep with you in my arms like this, and I won't do anything to you." Just like that? What a liar! Meredith did not move, but she could feel her body reacting as he hugged her tightly. She moved away from him to the other side of the big bed. Josiah ignored her and closed his eyes. Meredith could not believe that he had given up on her, but she was still vigilant and was prepared to deal with his aggression at any time. It was not until his breathing gradually calmed down that she turned her head to see that he had fallen asleep, much to her relief. It was a peaceful night. When Meredith woke up the next day, Josiah was no longer in bed. Meredith listened carefully and heard Nia's laughter from downstairs, mixed with Josiah's vo
Meredith took another bite and asked Nia pretending to be puzzled, "Does it taste like love? Why can't I feel it?" "Yes." Nia pointed to the breakfast on her plate. "Mommy, this is a peacock. Daddy placed it on the plate according to his cooking book." "A peacock? Not a little yellow duck?" Meredith asked. Nia was speechless. It seemed like a little yellow duck to her just now. "If Nia likes to eat a breakfast in the shape of a beautiful peacock, she can tell Mommy, and Mommy can make it for her, and she will make sure that the taste and style will be excellent." Nia held her chin in her hands and sighed very sadly. "What's the matter? Can't you eat it?" Meredith said concernedly, "If you can't eat it, it doesn't matter. Mommy will fix it for you." "Mommy, why don't you like what Daddy makes?" Nia asked sadly, "Daddy has worked hard, like the ugly peacock you told me about." Meredith glanced at Josiah quickly. Josiah smiled and said, "Nia, can't you see? Your Mommy
